FeedWordPress update problem

RawAlex · 2006-09-16, 05:12 PM

Wordpress also has a limitation in there of a whopping 3 seconds for connection, which sort of makes this thing unreliable. You can hack at wordpress to change it, but you have to keep putting it back.

You probably want to check with your host to make sure that your lookups and external connections are happening quickly. I use to run into this problem with my old host, but since I moved to Sparky's deal, everything runs like clockwork.

Also, FWP fails if the feed is down. You need to check manually that you can in fact load the feed. In many cases, the feed is unavailable (the other host is down) and FWP isn't smart enough to skip ahead.
